Yo, what's up? I'm Colleen, I'm 16 years old, and I'm not that interesting (so why the hell are you reading this?). I'm from Minnesota, and I'm in my third year of high school.
Stuff I like besides Harry Potter includes the Inheritance Trilogy, Green Day (I LOVE GREEN DAY!!), Pink Floyd, Nirvana, Less Than Jake, Underoath, V for Vendetta, Garden State, Shaun of the Dead, drawing, painting, writing (obviously), fine arts in general, and computers.
One of my major fanfiction pet peeves is bad grammar. I'm actually quite grammatically correct most of the time. Strange that I nearly failed English last year...
I have an unfortunate habit of swearing a lot. So, fics from me will probably have more profanity than some people are comfortable with. But I'll try to tone it down just for you guys. ;)

And ships I absolutely hate:
Harry/Draco
Hermione/Snape (that is so nasty, he is old enough to be her father!)
Remus/Sirius
Harry/Ron
Ron/Draco
Snape/Lucius
really, anything illegal or slash

I might not post all of my fics here, so you'd have to go to my blog to read them.
Actually, I've got this good one there now, you can read it at this address: http://americancolleen.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!F7475AEDF7003E77!1041.entry

Sorry I haven't posted any fics yet. I'm working on one, but I have to finish it before I can post it, or you'll never get to read the end.
